Any Good aftermartket brand for sensors?
sleipnir6 replied to Zac88's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Agree with the two above but also, if you're buying OEM I wouldn't talk with the parts dept of your local dealer. You can often find discounted OEM stuff online that is shipped from the dealers themselves. Air Filter Tacoma Subaru - $24.95 Subaru Parts - $19.76 $5.19 difference but if you scroll down towards the footer of the Subaru Parts website, you'll see that it's still Tacoma Subaru shipping it out. No idea why they do this but I've had to purchase a backup radar sensor thing for my Crosstrek once. They said it failed and I scheduled a time to get it replaced but mentioned I'd bring the part in myself. They said they wouldn't warranty it since they don't know where it came from but I showed them the box (still sealed) and the sender was their parts department. Service Advisor laughed it off and said they'll warranty it haha. -
2005 GT Should I buy it?
sleipnir6 replied to Rubin324's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Reliability is up in the air if previous owner doesn't have maintenance records. The stage 2 clutch has me raising an eyebrow. I'd assume it was upgraded to handle something more than a stock engine at some point but unless you have history, it's only a guess. Like @ehsnilssuggested i'd take it to get compression tested and fully inspected. -
You never know! I My brother's tuner charges him less for revisions but it's the same tuner he's had since his first mod.

You need a tune. I'm not mechanically inclined but pretty much everything I've found regarding going FMIC says it's needed because you changed airflow. You can get a tune now for it and revision for turbo.

Dash cubby removal?
sleipnir6 replied to Mr. Electric Wizard's topic in Fourth Generation Legacy (2005 - 2009)
Which cubby pod did you get? I know some cubby pods don't work with the door. -
Hey all, with the ok from JmP6889928 and SBT I cobbled everyone's recommendations so far into a Google Map. Hope this makes it easier to sift through and find a shop if you're ever in need of services. https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1Aoywm-JiHpdw24a8gb1kq5yakisM9UxH&usp=sharing I'll update as more recommendations roll in.

The Mod Garage 1148 Industry Dr Tukwila, WA 98188 https://themodgarage.com/ Originally purchased just parts from them but they opened a shop and do just about everything from installs to rebuilds. Sidenote, not sure if you'd be interested JmP6889928 but I've done maps for my employer in the past. Nothing fancy but puts all the info in one spot if that makes the search for a shop nearby easier (sample below). I'm down to continue it with your blessing. I'm not much of a gearhead so 'tis bout the only way I can help out https://www.google.com/maps/d/u/0/edit?mid=1Aoywm-JiHpdw24a8gb1kq5yakisM9UxH&usp=sharing
